Pain down left leg. Why?

2 watchers

Tim of Fife 1 Mar 8:16pm, 1 Mar 2021 3344 posts	0 Tim of Fife Back in January, whilst running, I tore my right calf badly. Obviously, for a while, I was weight bearing on my left leg whilst walking. I now have pain on the left side. A little twinge just below the waistband at the back. And a much more twingy left quad. Is this just the result of over compensating?
